[Bug 799379] [NEW] Monitor undected and screen resolution options missing

 

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

Binary package hint: gnome-control-center

Belinea 101728 monitor is not recognised and does not have full range of
screen resolution settings available as it does in WinXp. My preference
is for 1280x1024.

I have had this problem since first getting Feisty Fawn however, after a
long time with not using a computer and the internet I found my last
install of Karmic Koala to be out-of-date. I have done a fresh install
of Natty Narwhal and found a lower screen resolution setting in use and
Ubuntu has moved on and I don't know how to workaround it. I have not
been able to find out from searching on here and the ubuntu forums how
to workaround it or why the bug exists.

I would be happy to test any live CD's suggested/provide any extra
information. Incidentally if this is listed as the wrong package this is
because I ran the command "ubuntu-bug -w" and selected
Preferences>Monitors window.
